A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

11. No misinformation

NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

Sad when a comedian has more balls than all of NATO combined

What the fuck is that artwork?

It’s disrespectful to South Park.

You're making it look like it's Ukraine's choice. They're being forced to the nuclear path by the internal enemies within NATO that are fucking everything up

[–] mkwt@lemmy.world 117 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

Ukraine gave up those nukes in exchange for security assurances. If Russia is going to go back on its assurance, then Ukraine should be able to go back to the nukes. Fair is fair.

As a former SSR that held nuclear weapons on its territory before 1968, they even oughta be free and clear with respect to the non proliferation treaty.

[–] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago

I been saying this for years, and it's really nice to see someone say this too while also not getting 1000 downvotes. I shed a tear of joy for the new generation

Is that true? If the worst comes to pass, I wonder what the UN will say (not that it matters...)

[–] jmcs@discuss.tchncs.de 25 points 1 month ago

what the UN will say

"Well, they have nukes now, so international law is now more like international suggestions for them"

[–] mkwt@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This is NonCredibleDefense. So it's true if it would be funny if it were true.

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

In UN

Russia's deligate is beyond furious. Most everyone has an awkward look. China is getting very annoyed with their vassal's war, and someone on the floor:

wringing hands "Well technically its within Ukraine's rights..."

It's a bold move but I don't see it changing the outcome of the ongoing war. If Ukraine could build long-range ballistic missiles in the near future, I think they could regain the advantage even without any nuclear warheads. Nuclear warheads would not be useful without those ballistic missiles.

(What would happen if Ukraine did have nuclear-armed ballistic missiles but Russia refused to withdraw from Ukrainian territory? I don't foresee Ukraine actually nuking Russia, even in those circumstances.)

[–] caboose2006@lemmy.ca 39 points 1 month ago (2 children)

A truck can deliver a nuke. Just pack it in cat litter and drive it onto that bridge in Crimea. Should knock that stupid thing out finally.

Man fuck these comments, nuke Russia you pussies. I'll deliver the missiles myself if that's what you need. Strap me to the rocket and fire me at Moscow!

Fuck it, give them a Davy Crocket and then you don't need no stinkin' ballistic missiles.

[–] zakobjoa@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (2 children)

While I agree with your second argument that Russia would probably just call them on their bluff, I don't think they'd need long range ballistic missiles. They seem to operate on russian soil a lot, and you could put a big nuke into a larger van easily.

[–] nuke@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

That's why it shouldn't be a bluff. Fucking nook em

Tankies will be in here supporting nuclear options unironically.

[–] InverseParallax@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

No they won't!

They supported nuclear options only so long as their cock-holster putin was the only one with said option.

Now it becomes 'Everyone has to forcefully disarm a rogue nuclear state for Russia!' or some other bs.

Give them time, their talking points are slow over the weekend.

[–] Mio@feddit.nu 15 points 1 month ago (2 children)

They only need to get rid of one little coward hiding in his bunker - Putin. It would be a whole different story if he was on the front actually fighting because so many Russians die there.

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I wish, but he has lots of people to succeed him, who also piss and shit all over other people's stuff. Can you imagine a female version of Putin? There is one- Maria Belovna, IIRC her name. She is the kamehameha beyotch in charge of stealing children from Ukraine and putting them in "education" camps. Unfortunately she is in her maximum Cartman's Mom years. Not old, not young. I think she, even though a civilian, should be moved up the list for wet work, treated just like a Russian military officer and charged with war crimes in absentia. Car ignition go pop.

Man I thought this was a solid "thanks Obama" use given his weak defense of Crimea brought us directly to this point. Damn.

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

For real, it was imo the most categorically awful geopolitical play he (and Merkel, to boot) made while in office. Like, Neville Chamberlain-grade awful.

Shit, Ukraine should get both nukes and NATO membership.
